It warns of potential pitfalls in misunderstanding or oversimplifying the prompt.

Making the case
This document provides guidance on organizing persuasive arguments using classical rhetorical structures or modern marketing approaches. It discusses gathering an audience's attention, providing context, outlining an argument's thesis and parts, making and supporting claims, refuting counterarguments, and closing with a compelling appeal. An example debate topic on nuclear weapons possession is used to illustrate how to plan an argument by identifying knowledge gaps, structuring an outline with classical elements, and determining the most persuasive reasons and evidence for the intended audience. The key is to understand an audience and frame an argument in a way that convinces others they already agree with one's position.
Visualizing arguments
The document outlines an argument that it is wasteful for the city of Chicago to destroy confiscated weapons. The argument claims that the confiscated weapons, estimated to be worth $2 million, could provide funds for the city's needs rather than being destroyed. Evidence includes that the city already sells other confiscated contraband. The argument acknowledges the common belief in Chicago that more guns lead to more violence, but notes that nationally crime rates have declined as gun ownership has increased, suggesting guns in lawful citizens' hands may not cause increased harm.
